Rhodes College depends heavily on input and contributions from parents to maintain the excellence of its programs. The Parent Council is comprised of around 40 households, who are members of The Charles E. Diehl Society or The Red and Black Society.
The Parent Council strives to increase parent involvement in the mission of Rhodes through three direct measures:
Members of the Parent Council are invited to campus twice yearly, during Family Weekend in the fall, and again in February. During each weekend the Council has the opportunity to visit with their students, but also to learn the latest information about the college from faculty and staff, provide important feedback to administration and enjoy the camaraderie of other Rhodes parents from across the country.
If you are interested in serving on the Parent Council, please complete this form. If you have any other questions, contact Ellen Celosky, Director of Annual Giving, at celoskye@rhodes.edu or at 901-843-3285.
